Yesterday evening, Avengers: Infinity War writers Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely talked fans through the film's biggest moments. Live commentaries have become quite the craze in recent weeks, and another is taking place later today for Endgame with directors Joe and Anthony Russo.

While providing plenty of insight into the blockbuster Markus and McFeely managed to throw shade at filmmaker Martin Scorsese after he branded Marvel movies "not cinema" last year.

The writers have very different opinions about what constitutes as "cinema" and made that clear with the Tweet below (via ComicBook.com). Fans remain divided over Scorsese's comments, and the reactions to this response were understandably mixed. However, the majority agree that the Marvel Cinematic Universe deserves to be considered high quality art, just like that director's many films.

Avengers: Endgame has earned more money than any other film on the planet, and Scorsese's own three hour "epic," The Irishman, played on Netflix and not in theaters on the silver screen.

Slightly off-topic: the Infinity War/Endgame scores are getting vinyl releases.

This has me wondering; you know the Phantom Menace re-release in which they animated Yoda (rather than had him as a puppet)? How did they handle Yaddle?

In this image, Yoda is animated but Yaddle appears to still be a puppet.. weird.

@RageCipher - Something they could pick up on. Maybe she'll be on the homeworld of Yoda's species in The Mandalorian. She's pretty notable, or recognisable, of all the Jedi in the council so I could see them doing something with her.

Quick glance at her Wookieepedia; she doesn't have a canon death, opted to be less involved with the council itself, her seat went to Shaak Ti. Presumably killed during Order 66. Apparently Vader had visions of her and some other Jedi at one point, wherein he impaled her, so he might have offed her during the temple raid — like Shaak Ti — and the visions were a sort of flashback.

Of course, she wasn't in Attack of the Clones nor Revenge of the Sith because puppets became outdated by then. In Legends, she sacrificed herself for the people of some planet during a mission with Obi-Wan and Anakin.

It's weird that she wasn't in Clone Wars whatsoever. It's like Lucasfilm just suddenly became really opposed to Yaddle entirely.

@Nebula - Well she wasn't in AOTC so it's not like she's expected to be in Clone Wars. Many of the jedi on the council in episode 1 died before the start of the Clone Wars. Yarel Poof also isn't in Clone Wars.

@Nebula - Man, that CGI is terrible 😖 Puppetry all the way 🤘🏻

@Tasmaniac - That's not from any movie I don't think. Don't actually know what it's from. Probably some ad like
